Black Threads That Burrow Into Skin?

What type of parasite looks like black hair? When it burrows it peeks back out to breathe. If I have food in my hands they all rush to my finger tips before they decide to snag what I have.

It starts out less than an inch long and eventually it grows to be 3 to 4 inches so far.

They look easy to conquer because they sit there, but a hair I collected for testing keeps disappearing. I think it is going to sit there and it keeps moving around slowly.

There are tons of threads in my stool and I have sent my stool to be tested.

What are these? My doctor looked at me as though I were crazy and send me onto an urgent care.

Hi Bonnie,

I have heard some people describe black threads that burrow into skin (as well as other colors of thread), but no one else has described the threads coming out to eat.

Have you received the results of your stool test yet? These tests are not always accurate, but I would be interested in knowing if they found any parasites and what type they have classified them to be.

Are you on any prescription medications at all? Many people don't realize that one of the side effects of many prescription drugs is a type of hallucinations. No, that doesn't mean you are crazy. :)

It just means that your mind can think something is there that really isn't or you can just get very confused. I've seen this in family members who were on strong medications.

Of course, street drugs can have that same effect, too, if that is a possibility with you.

If you do indeed have intestinal parasites (as indicated by your stool sample), one of the best natural remedies is a combination of herbal cleansing supplements and natural probiotics.

Thread like fibers in skin NEWby: Havefaithingod

http://www.morgellons.org/ It sounds like you have what is called morgellons disease. Please take a look at the site and then speak to your doctor. Hopefully they will learn to stop looking at you strangely and begin doing their job. God Bless!

Suffering from the same problem for 60 plus daysNEWby: Martciab

I am seeing success in treatments. I bathe twice a day (every twelve hours) in the tub at night and shower in the morning. I use vinegar in the water. I have put distilled white vinegar on every pimple or bump or where I "feel" crawling. It brings thems out of my pores. Once I was eating some popcorn and I felt a Hair in my mouth. I thought the person who made the popcorn had lost a hair in my bag, but it turned out to be one of those going to "eat" the popcordn. I believe these parasites became a problem one day after eating some infected pre-package popcorn (Kettle corn). The popcorn has grain mites which I didn't notice until I had consumed at least one-third of the bag. I began immediately to have reactions and now I am down to the "black worms" or morgellons. They are not fibers, because these will move. they will crawl if still alive but they don't live long outside of the human body. They wash off in HOT water (over 100 degrees). I either take Para-Cleanse Tablets, Diomateceous Earth, or Pin-Worm Medicine to rid my body of them. They will move to the stomach and intestines "chasing" the carbs, sugars, fungus, bactera, or mold. So I eat fresh fruits and vegetables and litte protein. I limit my intake on dairy (esp cheese) and I limit my intake of carbs. When I do eat carbs, i follow with a parasite cleanse to flush them out of my body. I am no longer seeing them in my stool. I am seeing fewer in the shower, tub or on my bed. Wash everything daily, because their mates and eggs are not visible to the naked eye. My doctor has no clue, but told me to "keep up my own regimen."--- Internet has been information regarding this issue.

A solution worth trying....NEWby: Angie from allaboutparasites.com

Hi Bonnie,

I'm just going to keep this short and straight to the point. Please get Herbal Fiberblend powder, Barley Life, AIMega, and Florafood using the Canada order form and use it faithfully each day for at least a couple of months.

You have nothing to lose. If you don't notice any improvement after the first month, ask for a full refund.

I can get into the hows and whys of why these supplements are recommended, but I've explained countless times already throughout the site, so I'm just going to say TRY IT! :)

Blessings,
Angie

Black threads and I'm seeing Blue ones too!NEWby: Bonnie

Does anyone even come to this site anymore? I'm a 35yr old woman from Ontario Canada and for the past two years, I've been noticing blueish type hairs coming out my skin as well as black ones that look like the hair that would come off if you shaved your arm pits or a man shaved his face. My face is getting ruined and I'm getting really upset. I get pimple like things on my face, than when I go to pop them its impossible! they are hard and barely anything comes out but all of a sudden, there's more, they spread! pop one, another pimple looking thing appears near by and so on. its weird because the hairs don't seem to move and if you look at the blue hairs I don't see anything on them. The pimples have a white type substance that comes out a very tiny amount and that seems to be what spreads, all under my nails has become very dry and its like its eating the skin under them. the white substance is what spreads and than theres tons of these tiny bluish threads and I swear, I'll wash my hands and not even an hour later, wash them again and the soap is black again like my hands are filthy!! in the sink, tiny black hairs and tons of these blue ones too! ive even seen red ones. Than I'll be sitting and get an itch and low and behold,,blue threads are always near by. No one believes me and think I'm nuts even when I show them the threads or the white stuff that comes from the pimple type hard things I try popping and spread infront of my eyes! it seems to be many different effects just from one tiny hard pimple. I don't get it and ya my dog had a major itch and her hair got lots of dandruff but its all gone on her but Ive had this for years. Ya my guy sees them but still thinks oh its threads from your shirt or towel or anything else. Tells me to stop picking my face, but I swear,even when I don't I get red pimples everywhere with the white stuff that spreads, and look at my nails all under them, tons of the white stuff that spreads I swear has even ate skin from under them. I can't keep any nail polish on or it comes off in the same day. My nails and face breaking out was the first thing I noticed. My skin is scaring now and my nails used to be strong and grow long my whole life and now they are never growing and they are so soft and they peel off! I will use disinfect soap and it seems to help but I was putting hand sanitizer on my face and it clears them up but now they are in my eyes these blue hairs and my eyes go blurry sometimes. I'm so worried. MY BIGGEST nightmare is having something live under my skin. Everything I look up as well as people I know think I'm crazy so I don't want to even go to the dr because I'm already on anti depressents and am afraid

thread like thingsby: Anonymous

whomever is telling people that drug use and hallucinations are what this is all about is being really irresponsible. Try one of the cures, like tea tree oil drops in a body wash, let is be there 5 minutes then wash off and dry then put on coconut oil rub, I had black hairs, several pieces of black threads in a bunch, white dermodex and other hair like things come out in one day and one treatment. I have been feeling a crawling sensation on my face and other parts of my body so was not surprised that something came out. The dermodex mites are well documented but no one medical will admit about the black threads...very curious.I don;t do drugs, not even perscription.So the drug theory is totally an excuse to nay say what people are experiencing...yup, its real all right..they came out of my skin while I had been turned to look at one side, I looked back and there was a ball of fuzz on my face..it continued for about an hour...

Have you tried an internal cleanse?by: Angie from allaboutparasites.com

Dear Very Scared,

What have you tried in your effort to get rid of these black threads that burrow into your skin and the other symptoms you are experiencing? You mentioned the bacon grease and sulfer, but I'm sure you must have tried other things as well.

Have you tried a good herbal cleanse internally yet? It may take several weeks to start seeing results, but I believe that is the best option for helping your body get rid of whatever is the particular infestation you are dealing with, even if it is non-parasitic.

Herbal Fiberblend is easy to use twice daily and works well to clean out your system. There are additional nutritional supplements that can boost your immune system and promote healing from the inside out. Don't just rely on topical solutions.

There is a good chance that by now you also have internal fungal overgrowth, so cleansing and boosting your immune is necessary for getting your body back in balance.

You may or may not be dealing with something like Morgellons, but the supplements recommended for Morgellons treatment sound like just what you need.

I know you're afraid, but the best way to combat the fear is to take positive action and start your body on the road to recovery.

You are in my thoughts and prayers,
Angie

Terrifiedby: Belle

This is almost a complete match as to what im dealing with as well. Tiny hair-like fibers move in and out of every pore on my body. You can tell when a large group of them are trying to exit a certain spot because large golf-ball size lumps form deep under the skin. once they are out- the spot turns hard as a rock. I have been treated for just about everything in the book trying to get rid of these things but its no use! I see these tiny shiny fibers come out & they stick to ANYTHING that happens to be anywhere near it- basically taking over anything & everything in this house. Its one thing to have them on you- but when they take over your house there is really no point to even try to treat these suckers. Even if you get rid of them in your body, soon as you step in the door they just enter your body again as if they were never gone in the first place. Its not just annoying anymore, its downright horrible. I live with my mom, dad, my sister and her son(2 yrs old) & no matter what i do they alsways say its dog hair or something even tho it looks nothing like anything they claim it to be. Worst part about it is they have the same thing i do. they say they see them on me when i point them out on myself, but not when i point it out on their bodies. Their skin, hair, their clothes, even in their beds! My nephew is half the size we are, which usually means less room to travel in his body than in ours. I'm more worried about him than me but when the whole house is against you- there is nothing i can do about it. I am losing this war against them, along with my sanity.

hi :)by: Anonymous

I've had the same problem for a year now..I found I've been able to adapt by taking Epsom salt baths 2-3 times a week and taking supplements from the Poor Man's Protocol (google it). it's for morgellons and I'm done trying to put a label on this all, I found it stresses me and taking a sleeping medicine has helped me relax and be able to get good deep sleep. I've been recovering but it's still there. I smoke about half a pack a day and I'm also prescribed to 50mg of generic adderall a day. I feel when I'm tired or cold (which i feel very frequently) I start to feel things popping out of the heels of my feet and my scalp gets itchy as well as my hair sometimes stands and bangs spread the itch to my face which results in abnormal pimples. yeah, epsom salt baths HELP. I can notice the difference if I dont take one every other day. also, try dr bronners peppermint bar soap for face and body, it cleared up my skin and left less pimples. things will get better, don't give up, ure not in this alone. <3

Morgellonsby: Anonymous

Hi, I have been dealing with these fiber-producing parasites in my pores since 2006, in Seattle. I tried to think of several places I could have picked them up, but my conclusion was I may have gotten them from my cat. He had a spell of horrible itching at one point, to the extent he would almost pass out, it drove him so crazy.
I also got very bad itching spells.

I think they are a worm like parasite that can produce the red, black and other color fibers. Mainly the fiber bundle is on its tail which it protrudes up out of the pores. The fibers are rough and scratchy like little brillo pads.

I have found rubbing with different substances can drive, at least, the fibers out of the skin. This helps relieve the itch. I have used salcilic acid shampoo, vinegar, neosporin, etc. at different times. Actually the best substance i have found for the rub is saliva. Especially if I have just eaten popcorn, some carbohydrates like yeast bread or spicy meats. I think the parasites do come out when they sense another animal may have licked the original host, as a means of spreading.

Good luck. I also have chronic Lyme Disease, which some studies have linked to this skin problem. Also, smoking cigs. dries out the skin and makes the whole problem worse as the parasites cant extrude well.

I do not have any cure. However it is important to wash clothes carefully, I use ammonia soak and vinegar instead of softener.

You're not alone.....by: Anonymous

I've been dealing with black thread like things burrowing into my skin for quite a few months.Don't tell this lady it's all in her head about them peeking out of your skin,either...they do!Seems like they check things out with the black thread looking thing.It will extend out a little bit,and,if they think you're not paying much attention...I've seen it come out almost an inch or so.Try some olive oil on them.It will smother them and soften the extra dry skin,too.And,no,you're not crazy!Thankyou.
